My Favorite Things Merry Christmoose card

Hello everyone and welcome to the June Christmas Challenge over at Happy Little Stampers, and one lucky winner will receive a $20 coupon to spend at the Happy Little Stampers Store. In case you are a first time player with the challenge, our theme is always anything goes but but we have an optional twist you can play along with to make it more fun.

Our twist this time is Tree, and I came up with this card

1) Stamp and fussy cut cut the tree, moose, cushions and rug from the My Favourite Things Merry Christmoose set. There is a die set available but I'm trying to cut back a bit, and fussy cutting doesn't take too long!

2) Colour all the images with alcohol markers.

3) Take an A2 card base and cut some patterned paper that is a bit like wallpaper, stick it to the top of the card, and add a strip of red card beneath it to resemble a dado rail.

4) Arrange the die cuts an the bottom of the card so the rug and cushions are flat and the moose and tree are raised on fun foam.

5) Stamp the sentiment on white card, trim and mat it onto brown card to resemble a picture and hang it on the wall with some cord.

Awwwwwwwww, Top Adorable Christmas Card of 2017!!!! What a fabulous scene you have created, Carol! I just love the wallpaper and the way you have hung your sediment like art on the wall! So, so stinkin' cute!! Hugs, Darnell

Love this cute Christmas card Carol!! I don't do the colouring on my cards - my sister Jenny does (which is why all of a sudden the colouring got good LOL)...she hasn't tried any of the other brands so can't really compare but I think they are probably all pretty much the same quality and it's just down to practice, practice, practice (which is why I'm rubbish - too lazy to put in the practice haha) Stephanie xx

Such an adorable scene you've created. I love the wallpaper and the wonderful embellishments of the berries on the tree and the hanger for the framed sentiment. Just adorable! And BTW, you are one awesome fussy cutter Carol!!!
